Atropine and Spectacle lens Combination Treatment (ASPECT): 12-month results of a randomised controlled trial for myopia control using a combination of Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments (DIMS) lenses and 0.025% atropine. [PDF]
Aim To evaluate and compare the efficacy of combination treatment using 0.025% atropine and Defocus Incorporated Multiple Segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses to 0.025% atropine and single vision (SV) spectacle lenses in slowing myopia progression in children with myopia.

Defocus-Incorporated Multiple-Segment (DIMS) Spectacle Lenses Versus Single-Vision Lenses for Myopia Control in a South-Eastern European Population. [PDF]
Background: Myopia is a refractive error reaching alarmingly high levels worldwide and is associated with severe complications such as: maculopathy, retinal detachment, open-angle glaucoma, and posterior subcapsular cataract. The study compared two treatment strategies: defocus-incorporated multi-segment (DIMS) spectacle lenses and single-vision (SV ...

Association between choriocapillaris perfusion and axial elongation in children using defocus incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses. [PDF]
To investigate choroidal and ocular biological variables that influence axial length (AL) elongation in children wearing defocused incorporated multiple segments (DIMS) spectacle lenses.This cohort study included 106 myopic children aged 7-14 years with a 1-year follow-up. Participants were divided into two groups according to the increase in AL in one
